Hi Guys,
So my mother has got a Galaxy Gio and lately she's got several notifications that said her internal memory was full..
She has 3 non-stock apps on the phone)
- Facebook (in sd card memory)
- Backgrounds (in phone memory)
- Barcode Scanner (in phone memory)
Since this phone has such a ridiculous amount of internal phone storage, and since all her pictures and music is storend on sdcard memory, the only thing for me left to do was delete the least favourite app: barcode scanner... BUT when I tried I couldnt, the uninstall button in the properties page (in settings, manage apps) of the app is unclickable... I cant seem to delete this app!
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Install Mounts2SD app and can move all user apps to the SD-EXT (2nd partition of external SD card).
Google if you have no idea.
Thanks, but it says that the phone should be rooted. But mine isnt.

So I flashed 4.1.1 jelly bean and I was checking my storage and this is what I got!! What's wrong with my storage?

I recognise that. I had the same problem, but you just have to wait. There is a tab that is called misc. That show up after a while, there is probably your storage disappearing.

While it was "Calculating" there is an item called "Misc", and it disappears after calculating is done. I think maybe it's your nandroid backups, Titanium backups, or some other files. I suggest you to adb shell into your device and use "busybox du -sd1" to see which directory takes most space.

Exactly the same happens on my Gnex

I don't have titanium backup or anything. My phone isn't even rooted. Did any of you guys find a solution to this problem?
What is a nandroid backup anyway?

use a free google play market app called DiskUsage to find exacty whats taking up your storage..
Thanks man. That worked, it shows that I have my old apps (Shadow gun, max Payne etc) still stored. Is it safe to just delete them using the app you recommended since it gives me the option to?

yea, thats what i normally do when i find something taking space that i dont want. its usually app data from a deleted app that takes up the missing space(for me).

ASTRO file manager is a good tool for doing the usual file manipulation tasks, and it does not require a rooted phone to work with SD card contents. It's free on the Play store.
Just long-press on a file and tap "delete" or use the "multi" button to select and move/copy/delete/etc. multiple files at once.
When I download apps from the "more services" or "more apps" application on my sprint galaxy s3, does the apk save on my sd card at all? If so, where can I find them.
I don't think it saves them but you can get the app easy
Its in /data/app/ of your phone
Not internal or external SD
Root of phone memory

Changed apps2sd setting to auto in rom toolbox, and it fixed the issue.

For the life of me..I cant figure out why my internal memory is so full. Any ideas in how to clear it out? No music no pics only a few apps.

I found a huge directory called android.

Is that folder ok to delete? It has all my apps listed in it. That seems like all the data for all the apps.
Only delete if your want to get rid of the data. Programs store data there. Mine is huge because of the gallery app.

That's what I thought, thanks
My phone's camera usually freezes and then reboots my phone sometimes when I open the camera app. I think it happens because of the 'external to internal' app I use. I'm on version 4.1.2 and my phone is rooted. Someone please help.

External to internal is not stable on i9082 for a lot of apps. Definitely shouldn't use that on system apps like gallery or camera
Remove camera/gallery from external to internal app.
If needed clear cache and data of both apps after switching them back to normal memory
Thanks, but how do I remove apps from the external to internal app?

if you are using external to internal memory switcher then you can't, because you're mounting your extSD card as internal. and if you can't find anything else wrong, you might have to try and reverse this. but if you are using some app to simple move the apps data to external then it should be doable.
Did you try cleaning cache for camera and gallery?
Or trying a different camera app like Camera360?

I use the external ro internal memory switcher. I just uninstalled it and camera seems to work well for now. Thanks. PS: I try to hit thanks on your post, but my xda app crashes when I try. Dunno why.
